RE: The 28 Minute, Five Minute Freewrite ~ The Elusive Concept of 'Discord' ~ Original Photography and Original Story ~
Ah - here I thought we were about to be served some tedious claptrap about the breakdown of the nuclear family through emotional discord a la Revolutionary Road. But instead we got family hi-jinks and a literal discord in the spirit of A Christmas Story.
I liked it better. Perhaps the only thing more satisfying than a literal discord would be a littoral discord, which would likely involve the electrocution of several fish.
Hee hee, a real 'fish fry', or if younger, 'Fry fry'. (I SO want to put and E at the end of that first one, but that would only get me a dapper dress boot). Glad you enjoyed the walk down Nostalgia Lane. They are fun to write. And I love 'claptrap'. That was one of my grandfather's favorite words. They don't make descriptors like THAT anymore. Not that I'm comparing you in age to my grandfather, just in brilliance of saying. Though I suppose-when I first knew him, he would not have been all that old. Odd to think of those things sometimes...my how life goes by like a whooshing freight. Well, have a nice Sunday, and tallyhoe (you only hear that one when a fox cuts through the garden while weeding.)
